Use AWS AppSync as a GraphQL Server

Time:06-08

I am trying to connect my react native mobile app with graphql server. For that, as the graphql client I am using Apollo Client. I hope to use AWS services and, I have a problem in selecting the suitable graphql server.

Can I use AWS AppSync instead of using a separate GraphQL server such as ApolloServer, Express GraphQL etc.

CodePudding user response:

Yes, you can use AWS AppSync as a GraphQL server on AWS. AWS AppSync is an AWS service for creating your fully managed GraphQL API layers. Since, it is a managed service, which means you don't need to worry about provisioning a server for your backend.

I would suggest you to use Serverless framework to manage and deploy your AppSync application. Here is the link for you to get started and will probably give you a good idea how to use Serverless for AppSync applications.
